Agile, Basic Scrum, Scrum
Five ideas to improve your Daily Scrum
April 3, 2017 - Agile, Basic Scrum, Scrum
In my experience, the Daily Scrum is one of the most misunderstood Scrum meetings. Here are my favorite ideas, to improve your Daily Scrum
Get rid of the Scrum Master and Product OwnerOne of the biggest issues with Daily Scrums is that they are executed like reporting meetings. People feel the need to prove, that they have been working the last 24 hours, especially if the Product Owner or Scrum Master is around. But that's not the point of the Daily. The Daily Scrum is a meeting for the team to plan their day. It's like a mini Planning meeting. So, kick the PO and SM out of the Daily and start focusing on what to accomplish on the new working day.
Forget about the pastTalking about the past for hours is easy. You don't have to make things up, as they have already happened. But 90% of what you have experienced the day before is just boring stuff nobody is interested in. Try to get rid of the part in the Daily where you talk about the last working day. Instead, plan the day ahead. Who needs help? Who will pair with whom? What are today's challenges? How can we make sure, that we finish some tasks by the end of the day? etc.
Walk the boardUse you task board aka Sprint Backlog during the Daily. Only talk about things that are on the board. Add something, if it is missing. Use the tasks on the board to guide the Daily, instead of taking turns. Whoever has to contribute something, chimes in. That way, you start planning your day. As already mentioned: Ignore tasks, that are in the "Done" column. Only talk about things in the past, if they are important to all team members.
Start with appreciationsWe tend to forget to say "thank you" to our teammates. Why not begin the day with appreciating, what others have done for you or the team the day before? That's an excellent way to start the day with a smile.
Show what you are working onIf you really cannot resist talking about what you have achieved the day before, why not showing it instead of just talking about it? This way, your work gets way more tangible. Maybe, you'll even get some nice feedback, which helps you to improve your work even more. And yes, it's possible within 15 minutes.
What other tips do you know to improve the Daily? Don't hesitate to add a nice comment. Thank you 🙂

1 in 5 Employers Run Late with Auto Enrolment Sign Ups
Auto Enrolment News
Frank Dixon - Pensions Specialist | February 4th 2015More Insight by Frank Dixon
Thousands of UK employers are leaving it perilously late to create auto-enrolment pension scheme options for their workforces as new laws on the issue come into force.
According to the workplace pension firm NOW: Pensions, close to 20 per cent of its clients either fail to meet their relevant staging date deadlines or don't initiate any efforts to establish an auto-enrolment setup until less than a month before their deadline is due to pass.
The auto-enrolment service provider has also revealed that one in 10 of its clients run the risk of being hit with fines from the Pensions Regulator by failing to get their workplace pension affairs in order on time. A further 8 per cent apparently only seek out the relevant services they need a few weeks prior to the staging date deadline relevant in their circumstances.
Plus, the company has also found that only 20 per cent of its clients are heeding the Pensions Regulator's advice in terms of timescales and readying their operations for the introduction of auto-enrolment pensions 12 months in advance their staging date deadlines.
"While employers are being encouraged to get their auto enrolment plans in place early, the reality is a large proportion are leaving it late or missing the deadline altogether," said Morten Nilson, NOW: Pensions' chief executive. "For some, this is simply due to lack of planning and preparation, while for others, it's due to being let down at the eleventh hour by another provider.
"We strongly recommend that employers follow the regulator's advice and make their provider selection as early as possible to avoid unnecessary stress," Nilson said.
The Pensions Regulator recently said it intends to write to almost 1.5 million small and micro employers around the UK reminding them of the obligations they will soon have to automatically enrol their staff onto workplace pensions.

Danny Tenaglia
In Brief-dt is the Futurism of dance music. He rides the waves of sounds that move the feet and souls of people all over this planet. His new release-FUTURISM- is a 2 disc set featuring his new hit single Space Dance plus 2 delicious Modern tracks Re-worked & Reedited in Classic DT style. What is Classic DT style?
It's all genres of dance music on the front of sound with a mix that will massage your ears and move your body.
In detail
The tale of Danny Tenaglia's love affair with music, and the world's subsequent romance with him, is one of the critical veins in the body of dance music. He is every dancer's secret discovery; a random purchase at the record store, a reluctant night out that unexpectedly turned magic. Explosive success came not behind a major label release, or a world tour, or a radio hit remix: It happened when enough people had the private Tenaglia experience for themselves.
The momentum started building in early '70s New York, when a barely 10-year-old Danny first got the feel of vinyl in his hands. Enthralled by the music of artists like Philly Soul's The Trammps, Motown's Marvin Gaye, African trumpeter Hugh Masekela, and disco producer Giorgio Moroder, he started to collect records, plumbing the depths of each one, and frequently finding that he preferred the B-side to the A. It was 1979 when he discovered legendary nightclub Paradise Garage, where DJ Larry Levan's rich, genre-less blend of music seemed to mirror his own "no boundaries" policy. It was here where Danny found the club model he would one day emulate: Levan's bold style, the venue's plain décor, and the party's warmth and inclusiveness.
Danny left New York in 1985 and launched a successful DJ-ing career in Miami as a resident at Cheers nightclub. There he schooled the locals in classic New York and Chicago house, but five years later he returned home, tired of only playing other people's music. He started to assemble an impressive roster of remixes, including Right Said Fred's "I'm Too Sexy" (1991), Jamiroquai's "Emergency on Planet Earth" (1993), and Madonna's "Human Nature" (1994). But his first epic was The Daou's "Surrender Yourself" (1993): With the kick in the bass and the underlying rhythm as the foundation, Tenaglia blanketed Vanessa Daou's wispy vocal with grand, thick chords, a combination of classic groove and modern club-ready depth that was, at the time, entirely new. The title of his 1995 debut artist album on New York's Tribal Records described it perfectly: Hard & Soul. But even if the cocktail was his own, Tenaglia never hesitated to declare how heavily his influences weighed in his productions - everyone from Patti LaBelle to Kraftwerk, with countless lesser-known Soul, R&B, Latin, Samba, and Disco artists in between.
In 1996, after a brief stint at New York superclub Roxy, Danny landed a Saturday night residency at white-hot Twilo, a position that upped his profile but didn't satisfy his expanding artistry as a DJ and producer. While New York swooned for big-room diva anthems, Danny was turning his ear toward the more minimal, tech-y grooves originating in European production studios. This period produced solid remixes like Grace's "Not Over Yet" (1996) and Janet Jackson's "The Pleasure Principle" (1996), but by the time he moved to Tunnel in 1998, Danny had already created "Elements," an instant classic that caused the dance scene's collective jaw to drop. With his own warped voice providing the narration, "Elements" (one track off full-length Tourism) walked the listener through the different components of a dance track in real time, going from kick to drum loop to snare hit, letting each layer over the other until the track exploded with dark, drum-heavy energy. Next to ostentatious radio anthems, its simplicity was a revelation.
It was around this time that the murmurs started to get louder: Who is this Danny Tenaglia, and just what does he do to people? Clubbers reported seemingly inhuman mixing capabilities, booth-to-floor telepathy, and the grittiest "modern yet classic" grooves they had ever heard come out of a speaker. A trio of label compilations - Mix This Pussy (1994) and Can Your Pussy Do The Dog? (1995) for Tribal, and Gag Me With A Tune (1996) for Maxi - were the first Tenaglia sets clued-in clubbers could take home to dissect, but the release of his first installment in the UK-based Global Underground series of DJ mixes, titled Athens (2000), lit the international fire. Athens (meant to reflect the set he played at the Greek capital's club King Size) remains one of the darkest, strangest, sexiest sets ever released, and its tame cover photo of a gentle-looking man in a Yankee cap just didn't seem to fit. DJ dates across Europe dispelled the mystery and started the spread of the infectious Tenaglia fever.
Back in New York, Tenaglia was tiring of the cavernous gloom of Tunnel and longed for a weekly home that better resembled where the DJ bug first bit him - the Paradise Garage. He landed at Vinyl, a black-walled, single-environment, no-liquor club about one-quarter the size of Tunnel. He named the night "Be Yourself," after the self-affirming, heavy-bottomed vocal track he had recently recorded with Chicago's Celeda. And he took the name to heart: Without the pressure of bar minimums or an expectant crowd, Tenaglia spread his DJ wings. Next to new tracks by young producers like Rui Da Silva, Peace Division, and Saeed & Palash, he played the artists of his youth, with nary a beat dropped. If he wanted to launch into a two-hour set of straight-up techno, he did. If he wanted to play old Michael Jackson records, he did. If he wanted to get on the mic and tell the crowd the name of the sound he was about to play, or who next week's guest opening DJ would be, or just give everyone a "verbal handshake" to welcome them to the club, he did. And a city tired of drama embraced the barebones, music-centered night.
The world caught up to Tenaglia in 2000. His annual party during Miami's Winter Music Conference outgrew its home at the cramped Groovejet and moved to just-opened superclub Space. DJ giants like Carl Cox danced on top of the speakers with the Deep Dish boys, Fatboy Slim mingled on the patio, and for a day the ego inherent to DJ culture evaporated: Tenaglia was hailed as the undisputed king, the "DJ's DJ." His roof-raising revamp of Green Velvet's "Flash" won "Best Remix" at the UK's Muzik Awards, where he was also awarded the "Best International DJ" prize.
In the two years that followed, Tenaglia released another Global Underground installment (London); toured the world, took the party island of Ibiza by storm, remixed Billy Nichols' "Give Your Body Up To The Music" (a Garage anthem); got nominated for a Grammy (for his remix of Depeche Mode's "I Feel Loved," also nominated for Best Dance Song); returned to Twilo for two special gigs - a President's Day marathon with Carl Cox that shattered all its attendance records, and the club's sixth anniversary party with John Digweed, which turned out to be even more meaningful than it seemed at the time (Twilo was shut down permanently a week later); graced the cover of every major dance music magazine; and won a Dancestar Lifetime Achievement award... all while keeping the "Be Yourself" party buzzing every Friday.
In 2003, Danny came full circle with the release of Choice: A Collection Of Classics, a two-CD mixed compilation that let him pay direct tribute to many of the artists who had influenced his sound and style. It featured everyone from Blaze to Adeva to Imagination, as well as hefty liner notes explaining the significance of each track, penned by the man himself. He also remixed another Garage classic (Yoko Ono's "Walking On Thin Ice," which became her first Billboard number one ever), opened another Space during Winter Music Conference (the new location down the block), and took another Dancestar award, this time 'Best Party' for "Be Yourself."
"Be Yourself" took the same honor again in 2004, but this time the win was bittersweet. At the time of the ceremony, Vinyl, now called Arc, had already been sold to condo developers. Danny closed the classic club on Sunday, April 25, 2004, with an emotional set that lasted well into Monday afternoon, and culminated with his mix of Kings Of Tomorrow's paean to unending love, "Finally."
Since then Danny has remained prolific in the clubs and has graced the decks in all the big rooms in NYC including Avalon, Crobar, Pacha NYC, Roxy and Webster Hall. Now after a long studio silence, Danny re-emerges in 2008 with his newest single on Tommy Boy Records, "The Space Dance", named in honor of his first weekly residency at renowned global clubbing institution Space Ibiza to begin in July 2008. Immediately following that, Danny will release his first compilation album in five years, entitled "Futurism" also on Tommy Boy, with a nod to the modern dance floor and Danny's outlook for tomorrow's sounds programmed to captivate the next generation.
And as in every year since his DJ odyssey began, all across the globe, from his hometown of New York City to Acapulco to Tokyo, more people experienced their first night with Danny Tenaglia, that clubber rite-of-passage that forever changes how you listen to music, go out to nightclubs, and think about DJs.

Hello CathyKov1 and a warm welcome to DC
It can be rather upsetting to lose your hair but hopefully it maybe just a temporary phase. You do not state your age which is fine but if you are going through the menopause this can cause hair loss. Hair loss caused by the menopause usually leaves one with thin hair and not baldness.
With regards to your medication there are two which are associated with hair loss. Synthroid, which is a hormone is associated with temporary hair loss which can subside once your body has got use to this drug. Alopecia is a very rare side effect of Benicar. Alopecia means hair loss on the scalp and or from other hairy regions of the body. My advice would be to talk to your doctor as soon as you can. There often is alternative medications and a Trichologists (A branch of dermatology that deals with the study of hair and scalp health) may be able to assist but I would also discuss this with your doctor first.
I hope that this matter can be resolved for you very soon. Also it is very fashionable these days to wear hair extensions and hair pieces. But first one must identify the cause of this issue.
Take care.
Ps. I assumed the abbreviation of 'Met' that you use meant Metformin. This drug is not associated with hair loss.

We've been asked before… why does b2b use a virtual team?
There are a few really good answers to that question and I will share with you what we have experienced at b2b with utilizing the virtual world.
At b2b we have assembled a group of talented, creative specialist entirely based on their skill and proficiency with no geographical location to the rest of the team. We utilize team members in all parts of the country! Each team member brings his or her unique abilities to a project, without location being an obstacle.
With a typical agency employing a team traditionally, you are forced to find high quality talent in a fixed region. Often asking them to come into an office that may or may not be an ideal location. It is restricting and we don't want to eliminate talent based on physical distance.
In today's fast paced digital marketing world we would much rather open the doors to fresh, innovative and inspired artists from any corner of the continent! The magic of the Internet (BasecampHQ, Dropbox, Skype/GotoMeeting, Google docs, Wistia/Vimeo) makes it possible for any team member to sit in on calls, discuss direction and notes, interact with the client and team members, and of course, participate in the uploading and editing of project deliverables.
Just as our clients from anywhere in the world can interact with our team and get actively involved in each stage of the project, our team can work together and with our clients in an efficient worldwide office.
Working virtually allows b2b to pass on significant savings to our clients. Having a virtual office means much of the project budget is allocated towards the project and not office space and all that having brick and mortar entails, such as property taxes, utility bills, equipment, software and supplies to name a few. We are not about our image as much as we are about our client's image. The focus is on the best creative minds, all dedicated to working for our clients and insuring that the money they spend with b2b goes into developing their project!
We consider ourselves forward thinkers who are poised to offer the best in marketing and branding by becoming your virtual partner. Take advantage of the benefits and the ability to employ the best talent who fully represent your brand or product, let our virtual office become your virtual marketing staff…we are here to help tell your story!

Build Guide by TheRealDragonixer
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Garen Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Alright this is my first build. I know a lot of people say that tank Garen. Well your partly right, mostly wrong. The only thing bad about it is that you don't rack up kills as much, but you have the ability to stay in team fights longer. You will get kills so don't worry, most of the time i get 10+ kills with very low deaths. So please give this build a chance.
Alright so now I will get onto the build and about Garen. Garen is a pro tank as well as DPS, his spin is the main source of damage that you will use in game. I level up Judgement and Courage as fast as possible, also putting 1 point in Decisive Strike and leveling it at the end and getting Demacian Justice whenever it comes up. He has the capability of staying in team fights for long periods of time and your passive heals you whenever you are out of battle for a few seconds, very handy for early games. So the pros and cons.
Great early game killer
Great farmer with Judgement
Passive heals you when out of battle for a few seconds
Stays in lane long
Has silence and speed boost
Can earn gold easily for items
Does not use mana so you can't go OOM all the time
Scares the **** out of people whenever you come near them XD
Vulnerable to CC
Usually gets harassed a lot
Long cooldowns for abilities
Alright so thats it and lets get started!
The item build is quite simple but I'll explain anyways. The Mercury's Treads are for reduced slows, stuns, and all the other things that annoy you while you are chasing someone down. The Sunfire Capes are for armour and the extra magic damage. Since it deals 40 magic damage to all enemy units it helps weaken the other team for your team to attack, getting 2 will help a lot. The Force of Nature is for the MR that you will really need against casters. Just getting armour is a bad idea since most teams have atleast 1 or 2 caster and without magic resist, they can tear you apart. It also has a passive that heals you and gives 40 health regen. Guardian Angel help so much in fights. It gives you armour and magic resist and revives you when you die, but it has a 5 min cooldown. It's just a great item to have. Thornmail is to help you against those fast DPS champions like Yi, Xin Zhao, and any other high damage champions. Since it deals 30% magic damage to whoever is attacking you it works with the sunfire capes to do extra damage.
Early Game
Start off with Boots of Speed and 3x health potions. If you want you could run into the bushes with your partner and just wait for the enemy champions or stay by tower. If all goes well you should have atleast 1 kill before lvl 6. Your basic combo is just
Decisive Strike>Judgement>Exhaust>Attack them>Ignite to finish them off. If you have squishy enemies it should be sooooo easy. Once you hit lvl 6 you can start ganking. Start off by checking the lanes for anybody with low health. If none of them have low health. If you see an opportunity to gank take it. Recall and go buy your Mercury's Treads and a Chain Vest.
Mid Game
Now you should have some kills from ganking and your Mercury's Treads. This is usually when fights break out. In team fights always wait until the fight starts until later game. When they start Judgement into the group and silence, whenever judgement comes back up use it again. If you are winning the fight then feel free to chase people down. If you are losing book it out of there. If you are in desperate need of money go jungling or farm whenever you can. Go buy the Sunfire Capes.
Late Game
Now is the time that you are pretty much unkillable, you can still die but only from mistakes that you make. You should have both your Sunfire Capes and Force of Nature or atleast the Capes and Negatron Cloak. At this point you should always be on the watch for enemy champions because anything can happen to you or your team in the blink of an eye. Never go out alone because if they all gank you and your at top lane and your team is at bottom lane, your dead. you can't 1v5 but you can 2v5 depending on whoever your with. Whenever you can backdoor some towers with someone unless there's going to be a team fight. If there is charge in there and tank it for everyone. Get your Guardian Angel and it's pretty much over with your tanking abilities.
So this is my FIRST build so please don't hate. If you choose to rate it down please tell me why. Constructive criticism would be appreciated. Now go tank those noobs!

iPads In The Classroom: Worth Doing Right
I serve as a wireless network architect and administrator, as well as a part-time faculty member at a private university, and I am parent of three kids who are growing up immersed in technology. I also spent a number of years as an advisor on a technical committee of a local K-12 district, wrestling with how to leverage various technologies that all seemed fascinating, but not easily stitched into the general fabric of the school day. I certainly don't have all of the answers on the topic of iPad initiatives, but I do have broad perspective.
[ Looking beyond the iPad: Texas School District Picks Dell Windows 8 Tablets.]
Also, a bit on iPads themselves is in order. Other tablet devices have made their way into plenty of classrooms, but the iPad has the educational market locked up as measured in volume sold. At the same time, most of my thoughts about iPads apply to all tablets regardless of make, and the challenges facing those who aspire to build educational programs on mobile devices.
Loosely defined, an iPad program puts the devices in the hands of students and faculty, and is intended to bring about the realization of some set of education goals. I break down the challenges with iPad programs into four general areas: the purpose of the program, the students, the teachers (and the K-12 districts/colleges they work for), and the technology itself. Here's where each can make trouble for an iPad program.

"We had been looking for a church that provided something meaningful and uplifting. My wife had heard about this church through her job as a home health physical therapist. I visited the church on a Sunday recently when she wasn't able to come. I found this service exciting, EXCITING and very spirit filled. Couldn't wait to get home and tell her. I told her about the service and got her excited too. So the next Sunday we visited together and toward the end of the service I thought she was going to break my arm off. So we came back that night and the following Sunday and night. Two Sundays later, after the new Pastor…that is out of this world… was voted in, my wife says "let's join". And the rest is history. SO… if you happen to be looking for a church where your spirit can get excited…. the word of GOD is preached line for line from the Bible with explanation that rivals nowhere else….an understanding taught like nothing I have experienced in the past 10 to 15 years…… This is the place to visit." Robert Falls (Nov 2014)
The thought of visiting a church for the first time can be intimidating. All of us were visitors at one point so we know that it's much easier to enter a new place when you know what to expect. At Liberty Baptist Church, you will find a warm and friendly atmosphere, uplifting music, and thought provoking Bible teaching and preaching. We hope you will find the following information helpful:
What should I wear?
There is no dress code for our members or our guests. Pastor Mack Tester and many of our church families dress in more traditional "Sunday" dress; however, our main goal is that you would feel welcome and comfortable on your visit here at Liberty.
What are your services like?
Liberty has two Sunday morning worship services (8:30 & 11:00 am) with a Sunday School hour in between. Each worship service typically lasts between 75 and 90 minutes and includes a 30-40 minute exposition of Scripture. While we follow a traditional style, our services are not ultra-formal. You will find a warm family atmosphere, spirited congregational singing, uplifting choir specials, gifted soloists and a practical biblical message from Pastor Mack Tester.
Will I have to stand up in front of people?
Though Pastor Tester does welcome our guests at every service, he will not single you out or make you feel uncomfortable. However, we would like a record of your visit and ask that you fill out a "Visitor's Card" and place in the offering plate when it passes. or leave it behind in your seat when you exit the service.
Do expect to be noticed. Expect people to say something like, "Hi, we haven't met before, is this your first time at Liberty?" Expect for people to reach out to you in love. You're with friends. Even if you've never been in church before, you'll find that our church is open and receptive to meeting you where you are and helping you take steps to be where God wants you to be.
Not only do we hope you will come again but we also hope you are inspired to share the love of Christ where you live, work and play!
Do I need to give in the offering?
No. We don't ask you to put anything in the offering plate except the visitor's card. We want our service to be a gift to you. We hope you will find in this place a warm family spirit, the truth from God's Word, and a place where you can grow in God's grace. As our guest, please don't feel any obligation to participate in the offering.
Do you provide childcare during any of your services?
Yes. We offer safe, clean, and compassionate nursery care during every service for children ages 0-3 so that you, and others, can enjoy the service without distraction.
Where do my school-age children go?
What about my teenagers?
Other Questions…
If there's something we missed on this list, just give us a call, or ask someone when you arrive. Whether you're new to the area and looking for a church home, or if it's been a long time since you've attended church at all, we hope your first visit to Liberty will be refreshing and encouraging! We are looking forward to meeting you personally. Let us know how we can serve you better. We hope to meet you this Sunday!

I received (2) brushes I bought, this being one. As soon as I could, I went to finish a painting I had started. I ended up finishing the painting mostly using this and the other brush I had bought. Brush is fantastic!! The bristles are so soft, the paint just glides on the canvas. If you are thinking of buying this brush, don't think, do it!

On October 27, there were huge developments at King & Wood Mallesons (KWM) as four of the firm's biggest hitters resigned and partners were called into a meeting to discuss the firm's future strategy.
In a statement, the firm said:
King & Wood Mallesons can confirm the resignations of London partners Michael Halford, Jonathan Pittal and Andrew Wingfield. Rob Day has also indicated his intention to resign. These resignations do not impact our employees.
"In light of these resignations, the firm has paused its recapitalisation programme in EUME (having received commitments for the requested amount of capital) whilst it assesses the financial impact. We anticipate this process will be complete within four weeks."
But what does this mean?
Who are King & Wood Mallesons?
In London, KWM used to be known as SJ Berwin – a tough and gritty corporate outfit founded by the eponymous Stanley Berwin in the 1980s.
For years it was known to be after a merger with an American firm but that never quite happened. Instead, in 2013 SJ Berwin merged with King & Wood Mallesons. The Mallesons part of the firm was Australian in origin, while King & Wood was Chinese. In fact, no such people as King or Wood ever existed: they were made-up names to make the firm sound Western.
The merger was the first ever tie-up involving two major UK and Chinese firms.
What's a recapitalisation programme?
A recapitalisation programme, also known as a 'cash call', is where partners inject more money into the firm.
Why would they do that?
To help the firm increase its cash in the bank. A firm might make a cash call for a variety of reasons – for example, because it hasn't got enough in the bank to pay its bills, or because it wants to invest, perhaps in a new office or international expansion.
The Lawyer reported that KWM launched a cash call in July of this year, aiming to inject an additional £14m into the business as part of its recapitalisation plans.
Partners were due to meet yesterday (27 October) to discuss it; however, the situation has changed.
So why has KWM cancelled its cash call?
The statement says that the cash call has been paused as a result of the departure of four key partners, who handed in their resignations just before the meeting: Michael Halford, Jonathan Pittal, Andrew Wingfield and Rob Day.
What's the issue?
The Lawyer understands the cash call was designed to clear borrowings from Barclays: sources have claimed that KWM operated a £25m lending facility with the bank.
The four partners who have resigned are understood to be some of the firm's biggest billers, bringing in a huge amount of money. Former managing partner Rob Day's clients include Universal Music, the airline Qantas, and Associated British Foods, while Halford, Wingfield and Pittal act for a string of massive banks and private equity houses.
Furthermore, it is understood that 54 partners exited the firm over the last 12 months. In comparison the firm has only attracted around 25 partners through lateral hires.
In short, KWM has fewer partners, with less money to play around with. It appears to have decided to look at other options in order to pay off its borrowings.
An ex-KWM partner said: "This news strikes a chord of fear in my heart. I hope that people aren't going bankrupt, and I hope the firm isn't going bankrupt – not just because I still like the firm but because they still owe me my unpaid profit share."
What's the solution?
The European and Middle East (EUME) part of the firm went to its Chinese and Australian arms for help.
Like many international firms, KWM operates a Swiss Verein structure – which means that there is a certain degree of financial separation between different geographic parts of the firm.
It is understood the Chinese and Australian arms of the verein were willing to consider providing financial support on the basis the EUME partnership would put in a chunk of capital to the firm.
But on 22 November the firm released a statement saying the EUME arm has failed to secure financial backing from other parts of the verein.
"Regrettably, insufficient value of new capital was committed," it said.
It looks like the firm will now have to consider other options – a rescue merger deal would seem its best chance.
Stay tuned to Lawyer 2B for the latest updates.

Re: William Alder -Grave of Union Soldier in Civil War
In reply to:
Re: William Alder -Grave of Union Soldier in Civil War
Lisa Alder 7/12/07
I went to Rosemere Cemetery this afternoon and I am sending a JPeg image of the grave marker to your e-mail address.
The cemetery is located in the city of Opelika, county of Lee, state of Alabama. It is about 30 miles west of the Georgia border near Columbus, Georgia, the home of Fort Benning.
Rosemere is an old cemetery, and several years ago the Museum of East Alabama presented a cemetery tour. Local citizens (some actual descendents) played the role of historic individuals buried there. The tour was conducted at night with tour guides leading groups along luminarie lighted routes to the graves. There the "actor" would tell his life story. One of the graves was that of William Alder. Following is the text that was used by the person playing the part of William Alder:
"Here you have another of Rosemere's mysteries. I am William Alder, a Yankee that moved down south sometime after the War Between the States.
Sadly, not much is known about my life now, except that I was a Union solider during the Civil War. When looking into further research about my life, it was discovered that there were three William Alders that were enlisted in the Union Army, during that time. So since there is only a name
upon my tombstone, I'm going to tell a little about each, and let you decide which of them I am.
First, there is a Sergeant William D. Alder, of Company D, in the 23rd Massachusetts Infantry, of which no one knows much about.
Then there is William W. Alder, of Cleona, Indiana who enlisted in January of 1865 in the 145th infantry. His regiment left for Nashville, Tennessee on the 18th of February and reached Chattanooga, Tennessee and Dalton Georgia, on the 23rd. Their purpose was to guard the railroad, until they moved to Marietta, Georgia, where they remained until the fall. Where upon they received orders to advance to Cuthbert, Georgia and remain on duty until
mustered out on January 21,1866.
The third William Alder was in the 7th Cavalry regiment of Waterloo, Iowa. This regiment advanced to Omaha, Nebraska, with six other companies to set-up headquarters in Omaha. During the entire service of the regiment the different companies were scattered over a wide and extensive territory. Each company actively engaged in heavy duties required of troops on the frontier. They were threatened and frequently invaded by savage enemies, some of their
other duties were escorting trains, protecting immigrants and guarding lines of travel and the telegraph.
Now that you've heard the stories, maybe you can help discover which of the three Union soldiers I am and how I ended up in a cemetery way down south in Dixie."
I think I have a video of this somewhere and will let you know for sure.
Do you have any dates or anything else that might help identify your William Alder?
Best wishes,

This is my first Object Oriented game in Ruby. I have recently finished it after working on it over few evenings. I felt excitement when played it during testing phase or just when I was looking for a bug. It brings some nostalgia for games I played in early 90's. Games such as Arkanoid or Tetris and even some of the games like Wheel of Fortune which one could play in DOS environment, with no graphical interface. It was just a black screen with white letters describing scores, questions, answers, etc.
Here I am, a "creator" of a reproduction of the one of the most successful games in the '70s – Mastermind. My code as usually is available in my Github repository. I wished to be able to present it in the form of game anyone can play on my blog. Unfortunately, this is something t come in the later part of the course. This game can be run in Command Line environment where Ruby was setup beforehand. Here are few screenshots of the gameplay:
I have created six classes for this game. The player can choose whether to be the one creating code and letting the computer to guess the secret colour combination or to be a codebreaker and let the computer create a secret colour code. The human player class asks a user for the input of specific guess, while Computer codemaker class generates simple random code. In the similar fashion, I have created Human codemaker and Computer codebreaker – where the human player creates secret code and the computer just generates random colour combination guesses. The board class is responsible for storing colour combinations (just like in the real game) or calculates the feedback scores in the form of pegs – white or black.
For the feedback, I have created simple ASCII "graphical" interface. So we have six colour pegs and two feedback pegs which will inform the player how close were his guesses. Board class also renders colour guesses and feedback pegs on the screen.
During the building process, I followed the idea of creating small blocks – objects and creating communication between them in a low cohesive way. This become a difficult task as many times I faced an issue of their dependability while my intention was to avoid it – lessons are best learnt on own mistakes. I tried to follow simple rules like one task per method or Tell Don't Ask.
I have started creating the whole game from pseudocode. After that, I was gradually replacing it with more detailed descriptions. Here I started thinking that if I require a particular action (let's say adding pegs into the board), I would try to split it into most basic actions, pack them into methods and name them in self-explanatory fashion. It made the whole debugging process much easier. Before, whenever I started coding, I had to spend few minutes to recall how a certain method work, while now I could easily see what's going on just by looking on it.
My plan is now to review some codes written by other developers of this or similar game and copy the best practicies of coding – so my next game is, even more, OOP and cleaner. The next game I am working on is Conect Four. I can't wait to put my hands on.
As for the life matters, I can only say that it's easier to plan a schedule than follow it. Unforseen life circumstances took me many hours out of my schedule, among them overtimes at work, meeting friends I haven't seen ages, leakage in the house… and some adventures in personal life. Overall I spent over 16 hours last week on coding – about 8 hours on the goal.

It's easy to put things into perspective when you're kilometres outside the nearest town standing next to a forest of spruce trees that happen to be older than the country you live in. The large things in your life get smaller, the small things simply disappear, and you're free to move the mountains you thought were standing in your way. A life well lived is done only on your own terms.
Likewise, well-crafted beer is never an accident of fate. The ingredients didn't fall together without purpose. Think of Bench Creek Brewing as a beacon for craft beer in Alberta, exploring the untouched wilds in search of new flavours before anyone else. We take what we find in those uncharted territories, refine it, distill it and perfect a beer that's crafted to be shared with the world.
Please stop in for a tour, have some samples or fill your growlers with Naked Woodmans Pale Ale, White Raven IPA or Black Spruce Porter! We hope to see you soon!

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 785952
chown verbose reports incorrect retained user:group for objects not matched to with --from=
Last modified: 2012-02-08 17:59:59 EST
Description of problem:
F16/Chown command when used together with options -v and --from= prints out incorrect information on retained owner and group for targets left untouched due to not matching arguments of --from: it prints out the owner:group you tried to change to instead of the actual retained owner and group. email@example.com confirmed that this does not occur on stock GNU/coreutils - at least as of coreutils-8.15. They also confirmed F16/coreutils-8.12-2 was affected.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1.sudo su -
2.mkdir test
3.chown 500:500 test
4.chown -v --from=600:600 1000:1000 test
Actual results:
Any object not matched with --from= produces output like:
ownership of `test' retained as 1000:1000
Expected results:
printout: ownership of `test' retained as 500:500
Additional info:
The non-matched objects do retain their original owner and group.
The output is the same for non-root users as well. The problem only seems to lie in the verbose printout of chown: the actual owner change itself as well as the --from matching would appear to be unaffected (haven't tested extensively though). The incorrect verbose output can, nonetheless, be quite confusing if the verbose output is actually used for something, like verifying operation of "chown -R" on large batch on files for instance.
Yep this was fixed in 8.13
And update for this is alredy submitted - see https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-1031/coreutils-8.12-6.fc16
coreutils-8.12-6.fc16 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 16.
coreutils-8.12-6.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

FEATURED in Live, Love, Dream
148 views as of September 25, 2011
My portrait today is of a United States Officer, he is my brother.
I chose today to draw his portrait using the color blue.
For me the color blue symbolizes the sky and sea-he loves the water as do I, for me the color blue also symbolizes depth and stability, trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith, and truth.
I have several family members in our war and I respect and honor them all as well as all who dedicate themselves to serving in our war.
My brother is the reason I created my "Our War" series because I wanted to be near him in some way and because of this I have become near so many and I have learned so much and I have unstuck my head out of the sand to become more aware of how many deserve my respect and my gratitude for their sacrifice.
Which brings me back to my brother because without him I never would care as much as I do or take the time as I do to learn more about what is going on about our war.
You see without my love for my brother-without knowing my brother as I do, knowing his character, his dedication, his honesty, his heart and his soul and his sincere caring for others has taught me much-I believe that my brother is the reason that I know now why it is important to care about our war, why it is important to learn more about our war why it is important to do and not just to talk because he is a person who teaches through his actions. I have always known these lessons to be true but to see him put them into practice in his daily life and in our war is something that reminds me that I am always learning.
His smile-just the thought of his smile, makes me smile. His laugh-just the thought of his laugh, makes me laugh.
My wonderful brother who can always make me smile
H, I love you.

My friends, Matt and Becca, recently had a little girl and asked if I could take the pictures. I hesitantly agreed, knowing I was delving into a world of photography I knew nothing about.
I certainly gained a new found appreciation for newborn photography. Overall, I'm pleased with a handful of the photos, but definitely would shoot with more light and a larger area if I had the chance to do it again.
I primarily used my 50mm f/1.4 lens, trying out the 85mm f/1.8 here and there with some overcast light from a window & using a speedlight & halo light modifier.

Creating a Match With Your Suitable Retractable Awning
Retractable awnings are an effective method to embellish an area. Retractable awnings likewise bring practical advantages like extending living areas and even conserving cash on energy costs.
Function prior to Kind
Design is fundamentally associated with work. The primary step, then, is to recognize the setup place:
o Exactly what does the awning have to carry out in this area? An awning can offer shade either by obstructing sunshine from a space or by shading an area outdoors. Shading a space might need just a little dome retractable awning over a window, while developing a brand-new outside sitting location might need a huge lateral arm awning.
Retractable awnings are set up to slope (pitch) at a small angle, let go about 3 inches for every foot it goes out. The biggest lateral arm awning is 40′ broad with a 17′ forecast; the tiniest is about 5′ 6″ large with a 7′ forecast.
o Where is the awning being installed? There are numerous locations where the installing brackets can be situated: on the roofing system, wall, offsite, ceiling, or eave. The significant aspect is clearance, ensuring that blockages like shutters, rain gutters, and doors are far from the awning itself.
Awnings have a various affect whether they're set up over windows, doors, patio areas, hot tubs, break locations, or parking or walkway locations, and each area leans towards a various design of awning. Strategy the shade and awning size and design around the natural function of the area.
o What instructions does the office or home face? Characteristic which get the majority of their light from the south or west likewise get a substantial quantity of heat, increasing cooling expenses. Determining the most popular locations is a great location to start setting up awnings, given that this can decrease cooling usage 25% or more.
History and Design
Specifying the function of the awning naturally streams into acknowledging the ideal design. There are 3 significant classifications of retractable awnings:
o Lateral arm, the standard, flat stretch of material throughout 2 or more folding arm awnings
o Dome, rounded, fairly brief awnings which have a high arch stretch over numerous ribs for shape; extra-long variations are called extended domes
o Drop arm/Side arm, with one arm on two sides of the awning that can extend horizontally (side-arm) or directly down (drop-arm) for maximum protection and permits the awning to pull back completely.
For numerous structure designs, retractable awnings are a natural function. Lateral arm awnings are frequently utilized over patio areas, while dome retractable awnings and drop/side arm awnings prevail over doors and windows. Lateral arm awnings, nevertheless, were incredibly popular for both Spanish and art deco affected architecture, even over windows.
Even the color can be affected by architecture. Victorians utilized the result of sunshine through awnings to develop scattered colors in spaces. In the United States, lots of property awnings are stripes in sedate forest beige and green, however Spanish architecture provides itself to lively reds and yellows, while deco has the tendency to black and white and Victorian to pastel.
An Eye to Environment
Environment has a substantial influence on how a retractable awning is utilized. Retractable awnings can be motorized, and this permits sensing units to be connected to the awning which can withdraw the awning and extend at established environment conditions:
Retractable awnings are mostly for sun defense; the weight from heavy rain or snow can harm them. Particular sensing units can find rain and withdraw the awning.
Retractable awnings can deal with continual winds of roughly 35mph. Wind sensing units find wind speeds and pull back the awning at a pre-programmed speed; some immediately reconsider every couple of minutes to re-extend the awning when the speeds drop.
Retractable awnings are an excellent suitable for nearly any area, however it is very important to discover the best awning for the best area. By taking a look at retractable awnings as part of an entire option, you can connect the threads of function and design together so a retractable awning is naturally part of your office or home. Asking concerns about your area will point you in the best instructions.

First of all…this is not a happy post. It's about online safety and metal illness and story of a teen suicide. This is a sensitive and scary subject. I don't want to offend or deter anyone from reading I just want to warn you up front. I encourage everyone but especially those reading who may be teenagers or young adults to read this through and share their thoughts after with a friend, a parent or teacher or adult they trust.
O is for Online….
Where we all are right. Inside the internet. Where we are all safe and happy and completely aware of what we are reading and no one is silly enough to post credit card numbers, social insurance numbers (Canadian term y'all!) or our address and phone numbers right? We are all safe because we are aware. We are cautious. We are careful. Sounds about right? Not always though. In the midst of all this hoopla surrounding The Heart Bleed Bug (Yes, I just sent you to a Wiki link because no is marking me on APA right now gosh darn-it) making us all question the security of our passwords and personal information (SI numbers in Canada…still waiting to see if I am going to be one of the lucky +900 to get a registered letter :s) a story came up in my Twitter feed ( here) bringing me back to 2012 when I wrote a rant about the passing of a young girl named Amanda Todd who ended her own life after years of on-line bullying that all started because she felt safe and thought she knew who she was talking to and made an error in judgment. (You can see said rant here ). Yesterday a 35 year old man was arrested in connection to her suicide facing charges of: extortion, Internet luring, criminal harassment, possession of child pornography for the purpose of distribution, and possession of child pornography. My head and my heart almost exploded. First I though Good. Finally. Asshole!! Then I though of Mrs. Todd…Amanda's Mom, who has since the death of her daughter devoted her life to advocacy and education surrounding online dangers, and my heart broke thinking of how this would never end for her. Everyday she has to live with the pain of loosing a child so soon: so young, but she also has to relive it in public, out loud in front of everyone. Then I was in awe of her strength and her drive and her wish to help prevent other parents, families, friends and strangers from having to live through what she is. I just want to say thank you to her. Thank you for your efforts Carol. Thank you for your courage.
When I was in school I chose a path in Mental Health and Addiction. We all struggle with that: either personally or know someone close to us who does, so it mattered to me andI wanted to know more.I had a placement position (by chance) with The Canadian Mental Health Association and it was AMAZING. My first experience with a suicide of a youth was hard, it broke me. It brought me back to my families struggles with the same issue. I hated the word suicide. I hated the thought. I was lucky though. Because of where I was and who I was with: My amazing preceptor Jackie (who I love with all of my heart!), I was ok. Right away I got a glimpse into the world of fighting back after suicide. I got a peek into the minds of our youth and got to hear in their words what mental illness looks and feels like. I got to hear first hand from a parent who suffered a loss: then fought back. In a big BAD ASS way to help others: to help us all. Because of this I am trained in Mental Health First Aid for Adults working with Youth.
My path in nursing has since swayed. It had to. I was not in a place in my own head after graduation where I could BE strong and supportive. I went left when I could have stayed right. I needed to heal my own head and silence my own demons. and I haven't fully done that yet. However, I am getting very good at telling them to shut the hell up. I needed a push (sometimes a shove!). I needed a reason. I feel like this could be it: Hope. I feel like I saw some small sign of hope yesterday. 2 years later and they were still fighting for Amanda. I think I found hope.
A mental health crisis is not a joke. Please don't ever take it as such. If you see someone struggling PLEASE offer them help. Be a friend. Be an ear or a shoulder: you could save a life. OH and this 1-800-668-6868. It's the number for the kids help phone. Write this number down everywhere: make your kids memorize it. Make your kids call it when they need to.
Here are some links to wonderfully amazing information and services regarding mental health awareness and suicide prevention in Canada.
OR for your own country/province/state just open Google and use search terms such as: Crisis hotline, suicide hotline, crisis support, youth mental illness support
If you or anyone you know are having thought of harming themselves or others please: CALL 911, or your local emergency hotline, immediately and tell them it's an emergency: even if you aren't sure. Especially if you aren't sure. It's better to have a pissed off friend spend a night in the ER with a police officer and a nurse at their side than to not have that friend there ever again to be pissed off at you.
Be well everyone. Please. xox

James Anderson was left out of England's first-Test squad to face Pakistan due to injury, a decision Stuart Broad did not agree with.
Stuart Broad believes his England opening partner James Anderson ought to have been included in the squad for the first Test with Pakistan.
England take on the tourists at Lord's in the first of four matches starting on Thursday, but they will do so without leading wicket-taker Anderson, who is recovering from a shoulder injury.
His absence will mean a debut for either Jake Ball or Toby Roland-Jones, but Broad feels England would have been better served including a man who has 454 Test scalps to his name.
"I would have been tempted to have Jimmy in the 13, then you have him around working with the bowlers, pushing his fitness to maybe play on Thursday," Broad told reporters.
"I saw him [last week] and he was doing OK. He was pretty certain he would be included. I don't want to speak for him but he will be disappointed he is not in the squad.
"I think he has probably been told he has to play some cricket to be 100 per cent because the sensible thing is you do not risk him in the first [Test] and have him out of the rest, you get him right for Old Trafford."
The second Test at Old Trafford starts on July 22.

iPOD, THEREFORE I CAN'T CONCENTRATE AT WORK
Bad news for Dylan Jones, editor of GQ and now writer of the
much-publicised work iPod, Therefore I Am, the story of one man's
personal journey through music. The sad warning reaches the kennel, via
press interviews with psychiatrist Dr Victor Aziz, that too much use of
the iPod can result in auditory hallucinations in which a song becomes
"stuck in the head", even leading to problems sleeping and
concentrating at work. That 175-song "definitive Beatles album"

Power list will irk 'grumpy regionalists'
Good news for Manchester Evening News editor Paul Horrocks, ranked

Horrocks, praised for launching "a new 'lite' edition that looks
better than the main paper", had the satisfaction of beating Sir Alex

Who put the sisters up to it?
Intriguing news reaches Dog's ears about the eagerly awaited Tom Bower biography of Richard "£1m a week" Desmond, right.
Apparently the biog will look into the background of a lesbian demo
which got national headlines when Prince Phillip opened the Northern
& Shell offices. The book may well answer the question of who
encouraged the sisters to mount the demo.
Also, which newspaper
will serialise the book? If Associated were to take up an option, would

charmingly by the Northern & Shell boss in The Sunday Times at the

Dog is intrigued to hear about a campaign to be launched by the
Guild of Health Writers, demanding bigger bylines for its journalists.
According to the campaign's founder: "What concerns me is the way
bylines are getting ever smaller, and are increasingly printed up the
side of the page right near the spine, so that unless you are looking
very carefully, you would miss them altogether."
She goes on to
warn: "There are many culprits and the numbers are growing daily. I am
about to launch a campaign (along with some other members) for putting
back decent-sized bylines."
Which begs that eternal question: just how big is a decent size?

Job growth in the forecast for healthcare
Healthcare and social assistance are the fastest growing sectors and will account for one-quarter of the new jobs created by 2020, according to the Labor Department's Employment Outlook. That translates to approximately 5.6 million jobs.
The report finds that "one-third of the projected fastest growing occupations are related to healthcare, reflecting expected increases in demand as the population ages and the healthcare and social assistance industry grows."
Registered nurses, personal care aides and home health aides will see the highest demand, the report said. The department predicts the economy will add 712,000 jobs for registered nurses, 706,000 home health aides and 607,000 personal care aides.
The report also revealed that two-thirds of the job openings will require a high school diploma or less, needing only brief on-the-job training. The average age of the workforce will be older in 2020, with baby boomers still accounting for a quarter of all workers.

Xarelto Stroke Lawsuit
Similar to heart attacks, strokes are among the prominent underlying causes for death inside the USA at this current time. As per the CDC, one in nineteen
one in nineteen deaths is a result of a stroke inside of America. Not surprisingly, strokes do not generally mean death. In the US, around 800,000 men/women have a stroke per annum. A stroke is among the rampant underlying factors for long-term physical impairment at the same time.
Exactly why do strokes arise? Exactly what do I have to comprehend when it comes to strokes? There are a variety of root causes for stroke in men/women. We are going to concentrate mostly on ladies and strokes. The most effective way to stop a stroke from happening is to be familiar with precisely what produces the strokes from the get go. Before anything else, we are going to take a look at risks for stroke and then let's touch upon just what exactly goes down when you have a stroke. And lastly, we'll cover points for concern you may ask your general practitioner to reduce your possibility of getting a stroke.
Risk Factors for Strokes in Women
Are you aware that females of every age group are at danger for stroke? However, much like a good number of health problems, the potential risks escalate with age, but even young adult females are in danger for stroke. Having said all that, listed here are the potential risks for women to have strokes
Family history of stroke
Smoking tobacco
Being overweight
Insufficient exercise
Raised blood pressure
Testing positive for diabetes
Elevated Cholesterol Levels
Utilizing oral contraception or implementing contraception patches
Hrt after menopause
A fatter waist together with an elevated triglyceride level
Having periodic migraines
Having a baby stimulates quite a few adjustments within the body which will often relate with an increased chance of stroke for the mommy. Elevated blood pressure level and strain on the heart are a couple of biggest causes a pregnant mummy is in jeopardy for stroke. Utilizing hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and oral birth control has been recognized to escalate the chances of clots which will cause a raised risk of stroke.
A stroke develops when either a blood clot suppresses blood from going to the brain, or a blood vessel connected to the brain bursts. This stops your brain from receiving oxygen and may possibly set off brain damage. That is why deterrence is so essential.
Thoughts You Should Ask Your Medical Practitioner Concerning Strokes
Whilst you see your health specialist each year, it really is essential to run through the screenings for general health. Blood pressure, cholesterol levels, weight and activity level are points for you and your medical practitioner to talk over. Check with your medical professional just what exactly you should do to minimize your chance for stroke.
Also inquire further what exactly the indicators are of a stroke so you'll have the capacity to diagnose it punctually just before a lot of damage comes up. Working carefully with your medical practitioner, you might possibly think about cutting out/minimizing utilization of HRT or oral contraceptives as well.

After the birth of my first son, although it went well, I knew there were a lot of changes to be done for my second labor. After all, now that I have the experience of pregnancy and seeing my son growing up, I have more confidence in myself both as a mother and a laborer woman. I was aiming towards a spiritual adventure for that magical moment of my second son's birth but I needed some help in order to go through with it.
If my husband was conducting my delivery, I'd probably be rushed in to the hospital on the first sign of contractions, be strapped to the bed with an epidural and if pain showed up for even a moment, I'd be sent for a cesarean immediately. I had different plans so I asked my husband to stay at home with my older son when the moment comes (with an excuse that he needs his father in such an emotional transfer) and I would get myself a doula. We have known Gilli Stuppel for a few years now. She as been my acupuncture therapist and a dear friend, so when she told me she started practicing as a birth doula, I had no doubt she is the answer to my perfect birth fantasy. We started working together on breathing and positioning, but most of all her help was mentally and spiritually. She convinced me I could do it any way I want to, and reassured me that a second birth is usually easier.
On top of a doula, I also had a great Doctor joining our team. I came to Dr. David Ghozland through a newspaper ad and that turned to be one of the best decisions I've made. When I came to Dr. Ghozland with a birth plan that included natural birth and a doula, he not only accepted it but reassured me that as long as the baby and I are well, he is merely there to "catch" him.
Now all I had to do was wait for the time to come and although a second birth should be on time or even earlier, I reached my due date with no sign of the baby wanting to come out. At first I was a little nervous but since I was aiming towards a natural experience, I decided to let nature control our fait. According to my doctor the child was fine and due dates are as we know only a time line crated by people so we had nothing to worry about. Yet when I felt the first contraction two days after my due date, I was really anxious to get that baby out!
It was Tuesday morning at around 5. I called up Gilli at around 7 and she came right over, both of us with the thought it's just a couple hours away from labor. We timed the contraction and Gilli called up my doctor and told him we'll give him a call once we feel it's time to go the hospital. Everything seamed to be going well until it started slowing down. We immediately went over to Dr. Ghozland's clinic who assured me the baby was fine but still up and I was only 3cm. dilated. We decided to go for a long walk to get that baby down! we turned around the neighborhood for god knows how long, people looking at me with fear (someone actually wanted to call an ambulance afraid I'm having the baby on the street) and every few minutes I'm stopping to catch my breath and go through another contraction, which now started being even further apart.
By the end of that day, after a second check up by Dr. Ghozland which showed no difference, and some rest under Gilli's supervision and acupuncture needles, I've realized I was too anxious which only interfered with the process and that as long as the baby was fine, I should let him come when he's ready.
That night I woke up every 10-15 minutes to go through contractions. I even stood up through the tough ones and than went back to sleep. After that long exhausting day, I was too tired to mind the pain and my body already got used to it. The next day I went to see my doctor again and we came to a mutual agreement, since I didn't want any medicated induction, that we should wait till the evening and then break my water and see what happens.
Wednesday evening I left my older son with a friend while my husband and I checked into the hospital. I figured until gilli and my doctor arrive, I might as well have some company. But since kids are so unpredictable, not long after I signed in the hospital and checked in my room, my water broke naturally.
The nurse called up my doctor, my husband spoke to Gilli who was already on her way, and I felt quite fine for someone who was by than 8cm dilated.
From that moment on, everything seamed so surreal…I am standing next to the bed while Gilli is massaging my lower back and putting some pressure on and my husband (remember he wasn't supposed to be there!!) and Dr. Ghozland are sitting together chatting, the only thing missing is a cup of coffee and a piece of pie. At around 7:30pm, forty minutes after my water broke, I felt it was time. I was squatting backwards on the bed gilli was comforting and massaging me as I go, my doctor encouraging me to push and my husband (yeah, he stayed for the whole thing) watching with amazement as he fans my face with a piece of paper since I was really hot.
The highlight of the whole event was when I was supposed to push but felt the cool breeze had stopped, I look back to find my husband so concentrated on what's going on down between my legs, that he was fanning towards the wall! I started laghing so hard I forgot to push…
Eventually, that one last push came and the baby's head was out. According to Gilli the umbilical cord was tied around his neck, but Dr. ghozland just asked me to stop pushing, removed the cord and asked to continue as if nothing happened. At 7:50 pm, our baby screamed out his way to the world.
Looking back I can say the combination of my body getting used to the pain of the contractions (believe it or not, 30hrs. of laboring has its upside), a cool and open minded doctor and a great supporting doula helped me experience a great and easy labor. Add to that a sweet nurse, a husband who overcame his fear and the gift of holding my baby after that whole journey and you have a woman who's willing to have more kids.
